Kong Qinggen, Yang Yuanlong, Ye Yanming. USING Xe<sup>1v</sup>-ION-LASER-INDUCED FLUORESCENCE TO STUDY THE PERFORMANCE OF ZnCdS:Ag FLUORESCENT SCREEN FOR MEDICAL X-RAY[J]. Chinese Journal of Luminescence, 1986,7(3): 295-299DOI:
The experimental system of laser-induced fluorescence (LIF)which uses the UV (λ=365nm) light of pulsed Xe
1v
ion laser with coaxial structure as the exciting source is described. The UV output characteristic of pulsed Xe
1v
ion laser was studied. It is the first time to use such a system to investigate the luminescence performance of ZnCdS:Ag fluorescent screen for medical X-ray. The LIF technique
which has very high sensitivity
can be easily used to measure the fluorescent spectrum and lifetime simultaneously. Experimental results are consistent with those obtained by using other methods (e.g. using UV lamp or X-ray as exciting source). The LIF technique has the advantage of avoiding the damage of X-ray radiation to human body.
